Shimonoseki Station is the nearest station. It is almost a straight route from the west exit ticket gate, but it was dark early in the morning and I had no idea where the ocean was.
If you refer to the youtube video, you may be able to see that “the sea is pitch black. There are few street lights.

Boarding tickets are purchased on board. When you are seated, a man will call out to you at the ticket counter. Pay in cash.
The round-trip ticket is 710 yen. This is a sales price that seems to be supported by the government.
Only on Saturdays, you can take a day trip to Futaijima.
Futaijima is another inhabited remote island, also in Shimonoseki. I took a day trip to these two islands on the same day. I stayed in Kokura on Saturday for this purpose.
